@ Hobbs: no man i was ripping up some prince of Persia the forgotten sands (easy but grate game) when the damn house started to move.
All in all it was scary not knowing what it was and the 2 after shocks didn't phase me since by that time i knew what the deal was.

Happy belated birthday Wes! I live in the tip of Virginia but didn't feel anything. It was plastered all over the news though. I've never experienced an earthquake but have experienced numerous floods because I live in a low lying area. I was visiting Georgia the summer I turned 16 and experienced my first tornado. The tornado was by far scariest.
You said you're building an AR-10? How's that coming along? _________________________________________________________
So far in the AR-10 build i have paid for and got all parts for the lower half and i am setting on the cash for 2/3 of the upper, got a pic of the lower here with exploded view of all its parts and i still need the cash for parts 4,1,and 3 of the upper.
They are the most costly parts of the upper but it wont be long now.

@Wes213
No doubt. Been staying busy and I see you have been busy as well. Looking good on that AR build. I've been drawn to firearms recently myself. Not enough to build my own AR but not say I haven't been window shopping.
I checked out those shooting vids on your Tube page. Nice man. I think it's great that you're getting your fam involved in shooting. My old lady goes with me to the range too and she loves it. I've been investing my spare time into some Crysis 2, L.A. Noire, and learning to drive a big rig. I'm still in school, currently in my third semester for software development. Java is a bitch. I hope to graduate soon and move to the IT dept. where I work and drive a coal truck on my days off. I can make around $600-$1,000 a day but the work's not always there.
How are things going with you? How is the lady? (Jessica?)
Hope all is well.
Regards,

Me, Jess and the kid are all doing well or at least as good as you can do when you hit that part of the year for the big money stuff like property tax and home owners insurance.
Sounds to me like your plate is full and there is more setting on the table bro, don't over fill your cup to the point of a brake down man.
On the gun front i have went as far as to get the girl a 380 ruger lcp and i am now looking at getting the kid his own MP-5 22 to make feel like a real B.A. lol.
Good to know you're still here bro and now i need to get around to calling rebel charm in TX if he hasn't already wrote me off as a phone snob.

That's great man. Yeah I'm still here, somewhere. lol
I want a Browning Hi Power or a 1911. I've been looking at Rock River Arms but they're a little pricey.
I think I'm past the point of a break down.
I know what you mean with the property tax and insurance. It's a pain but something you gotta have bro. _________________________________________________________
